Sarkozy’s new love: French President Nicolas Sarkozy has gone public with his new girlfriend, model-turned-folksinger Carla Bruni. The couple was photographed last weekend on an apparent date at Disneyland Paris. “We must now wait and see how far the president will go in presenting Carla Bruni officially,” said Christophe Barbier, editor of the weekly magazine L’Express. “We will see if he includes her on trips and if one day he gives her official functions.” Bruni, 39, has been romantically linked in the past with rock stars Mick Jagger and Eric Clapton. Sarkozy, 52, announced his divorce from Cecilia, his wife of 11 years, just two months ago.
